Sip Less is a private, judgment-free companion for women who want to drink less or stop drinking altogether. Whether you want to quit completely, cut back, take a break, or just be more mindful — Sip Less meets you where you are with simple daily check-ins, craving support, and a clear view of your progress. DAILY CHECK-INS Log whether you drank today in one tap. Record your mood (great, good, okay, or tough) and add optional notes. Quick, honest, no judgment. CRAVING TOOLKIT When an urge hits, log it. Track the intensity, identify your trigger (stress, boredom, social pressure, habit, celebration, sadness, or tiredness), and journal through it. Seeing your craving patterns helps you understand and manage them. STREAK TRACKING Watch your dry days add up. Your current streak and total dry days are always front and center, giving you a reason to keep going. PROGRESS CALENDAR See your journey month by month. Every dry day is marked on your calendar so you can look back and see how far you have come. SET YOUR OWN GOAL Choose what feels right for you — stop completely, cut back significantly, take a break, or be more mindful. Your goal, your pace. DAILY REMINDERS Set a reminder to check in at the time that works for you. A gentle nudge to stay consistent. 100% PRIVATE Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no cloud sync, no data collection, no tracking. Your journey is yours alone. Sip Less was designed for women, but anyone looking to build a healthier relationship with alcohol is welcome. Start your first check-in today. Small steps lead to big changes.

Pace is the calm, private way to drink a little less. Most drink trackers want a subscription, an account, and your data in their cloud. Pace wants none of that. Your log lives only on your iPhone, encrypted at rest, and never leaves the device — no coach, no feed, no judgement. Just a quiet tool that helps you notice your own patterns. WHAT PACE DOES • Log a drink in two taps — standard drinks, time, context and mood • Set a weekly limit and a dry-days goal • Watch your dry streak grow and unlock milestones as you go • See gentle weekly & monthly trends, plus the money and calories you didn't spend* PRIVATE BY DESIGN • 100% on-device — no account, no cloud, no analytics, no network access at all • Encrypted at rest, with an optional Face ID lock • Optionally sync to Apple Health — on your device, on your terms • Export your own data anytime ONE PRICE, YOURS FOREVER Unlock everything with a single purchase. No subscription, ever. Every future update included. * Insights, trends, the money & calories you saved, and CSV export are part oase. Logging, goals, streaks and milestones are always free. Pace is a private tracking tool, not medical advice. If you're worried about a doctor.
